MARVIN'S MAZE
Help Marvin defend his Maze from the terrible Robonoids in this cute and addictive arcade puzzle-action game, originally released in 1983.

HAL 21
As Captain Clain, attack enemies in the air and bomb ground targets on your way to the boss in this classic shooting title originally released in 1985.

ATHENA
Join Athena, Princess of the Kingdom of Victory as she opens the "Forbidden Door" and descends into a world of fantasy in this classic platform arcade game originally released in 1986.

IKARI WARRIORS
As colonel turned mercenary Ralf, use your machine gun, grenades, and jump in tanks to defeat countless foes. Infiltrate the enemy base and complete your mission in this '80s run-and-gun mega-hit!

GUERRILLA WAR
Enter the jungle and ruined cities of a tropical island to overthrow its tyrannical dictator, and liberate the nation held in his grip. Don't forget to rescue your captured comrades along the way! Hail the heroes of the Revolution!
